About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn to love.

ABOUT ME

Name's Kevin. I'll be exploring the globe for a year before I plunge into grad school/med school/whatever comes next. Stops in my ever-evolving itinerary include Africa, the Indian Subcontinent, Southeast Asia, and maybe Europe. Hell, throw South America in there, why not :)

PHILOSOPHY

Never mistake cynicism for wisdom. Daydream, frequently. Embrace absurdity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just surfing for the time being. Will host when I'm back home, at a date TBD!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Great thus far...but (and surely some people must agree with me, right?) the site design is pretty much irredeemable.

Interests

Music, literature of all veins, and other sacred things. Science is pretty rad too :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Blade Runner, Cidade de Dios, Princess Mononoke, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Godfather, Pulp Fiction, Seven Samurai, Once Upon a Time in the West, The Seventh Seal, Stalker, Heat...and Star Wars of course :D

Books: Lots. Nabokov, Vonnegut, Tolstoy, Neil Stephenson, and DFW are locked in a bloody deathmatch for title of "Favorite author." Love the classics, too. And poetry.

Music: Too much to list. I'll play you at least one thing you're bound to like!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just ask ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

Stories and opinions by the truckload, if you want! And whatever small wisdom I've picked up in the last quarter decade

Countries I’ve Visited

Bangladesh, Cambodia, Denmark, Germany, India, Italy, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Nepal, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, Thailand, Turkey, Zambia

Countries I’ve Lived In
